Hi and welcome, debbiek2019
It's best to get a personal calorie range from the NHS BMI calculator and to start near the top end nhs.uk/live-well/healthy-we...
Alternatively, follow a different path, that requires no counting phcuk.org/wp-content/upload...

Hello and welcome Debbie
The best advice I can give is have enough to eat. If you are following the NHS 12 Week plan then the 1400/1900 calorie target suggested is a just generic amount, please check your own personal calorie target using the BMI checker, it’s often higher than you think. We always advise starting towards the top of the range, being hungry is the biggest cause of weight loss failure
Best wishes

Ty so much for the warm welcome, I have a huge amount of weight to lose, i've calculated the calories & yes its a lot for me to eat because i would only mainly have 1 big meal a day & my biggest downfall is/was alcohol (a bottle of wine a night) 7 days a week , I took my dog for a walk in a long time & we both felt better afterwards & im now drinking a glass of ribena instead of wine
